Look at the 38 degree swing from the low to the high! Whew! But we'll take that high any day in January! And the sun even shown to help the celebrating! And this evening the moon was fantastic.

It was a gray, snowy morning when Reggie and I left the vets. It was just gray and blah. The sun did peek out a few times during the afternoon, but not enough. Here's what it looked like (I actually cheered this up some):
Reggie's test results were up a little bit, but not [...] Firestone wanted to charge me $19.00 to replace the burned out bulb below. I did it myself. Luckily the brake light in the rear window is about the easiest bulb one can replace on my car. Just twist the socket and pull it out. No screws, covers, bolts, etc. Firestone wanted to charge me $6.00 for [...] I'm feeling this big let down. Yesterday I was 10 minutes shy of being part of a lock down at one of the biggest malls in the United States. Today…nothing, nada, zip. No almost-anything! I've gone from the zenith of almost-excitement to the drudges of actual-reality. Nobody almost-threatened me. Nobody practically-forced me. No maybe-gun sightings [...] Late this afternoon I ran a few boring, but mandatory, errands. One errand required stopping in at Woodfield Mall. It was about 4:00 when I got there and I was pleasantly surprised to find the parking lot fairly free of cars. I parked, strolled into Macy's and from there entered the Mall. It was pretty [...] It's back. I decided to skip a visit to the grocery tonight…I didn't want to get out of the car again till I got home. "Oh yeah. Libby says 'hi'." The other day I told you that you could own a piece of the Firth as Darcy legacy. The painting went for 12,000 British pounds. I did not win the image. Oh wait, I didn't bid…so nothing gained, nothing lost. For more information check out the Bonhams website. As I mentioned the other day, there is [...] OK, I admit it. Hanging my head in shame. I've never watched or read the Lord of the Rings books. My brother loved them and now his older children do also. My niece is always shocked to learn that I haven't even watched the movies. Well, tonight I'm watching Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the [...] I spent a lot of time today trying to resolve techie issues with computer equipment or services…nothing resolved. UGH. Reggie and I spent over an hour and a half at the vets today as they ran different tests. Over the past few days he's been eating less and less, so Sunday I cooked him rice. He snarfed down the rice and seemed very happy about it, but he threw it all up around 4:00 [...] Need a little more Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy in your life? Is the 1995 version of Pride and Prejudice just not fulfilling your Firth/Darcy need? Well, now you can own a piece of the movie for the right price. The portrait of "young" Darcy that Elizabeth gazes at in the Pemberley portrait gallery is [...] Somebody showed me how to do some animation in PowerPoint today. I've never done animation in PowerPoint, but I have done it in Keynote. Here's an example (only it doesn't look the greatest on YouTube): This is part of a bigger project that I haven't had time to finish. It plays too fast on YouTube, but [...] Could we please have this weather back?
The forecast for today is that we won't see 0° F (-17.778° C) and it will be the coldest day in a decade. I decided to track it for history…or to make it feel even worse!!!! At midnight: That's -2° F (-18.889° C). The wind chill is a balmy -22° F (-30° C). We're off to [...] I haven't updated about Reggie in a while. He's been doing pretty well, but is not back to normal. His red blood cell (RBC) count got up to (and stayed at) 41% for a few weeks, so the vets lowered his Prednisone from 20 mg a day to 10 mg. He's also finished his four [...] Can you entertain a crowd with your Tic Tacs? This guy can: In the past few years I've shared images from the Marshall Field's annual Christmas windows. Well, I begrudgingly give you one image from this year's windows at the Macy's store on State Street. I think these are the absolute worst windows they've ever had! That's why I'll call them Macy's windows instead of Field's. There were [...] |
